Re: Fwd: alioth back online, some ssh keys changed
Hi Stephen, I'm just wondering about one small thing
Look e.g. at one git repository
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-boinc/boinc.git
the URL field
Just my 0.02 $
Gianfranco
just shows only
URL https://alioth.debian.org/anonscm/git/pkg-boinc/boinc.git
the "git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-boinc/boinc.git" is missing.
So basically new developers won't be able to push anything to alioth if they clone a new repository from scratch.
$git push
error: Cannot access URL https://alioth.debian.org/anonscm/git/pkg-boinc/boinc.git/, return code 22
fatal: git-http-push failed
Would be nice to have a fix for this!
many thanks for your work!
have a nice weekend
Gianfranco
